WHEN SYLVIA WOKE, it was with Minho's arm slung over her waist lazily. His breath hot against her shoulder blades, sending an involuntary shiver down her spine. She hated how much she didn't hate this. She hated the fact that his arms around her brought her a sort of comfort. His skin against hers. His breath on her back. She hated that she didn't want to get up.
Sylvia lifted her wrist wearily, blinking to try and get her sleep laden eyes to focus on the watch. It was late into the evening now, almost eight o'clock. They needed to prepare for the Grievers. But she didn't want to get up.
She was sure that was the most sleep she had gotten in weeks, without waking from nightmares or other causes (i.e. ghosts). She sighed, and carefully picked up Minho's arm, removing it from around her. She wanted to be gone before he woke. He stirred and Sylvia stilled. She held her breath for a moment, waited for Minho to settle back down, and then attempted to crawl over him to leave the bed.
Before she could fully exit, an arm wrapped roughly around her, throwing her back onto the bed. The breath left her lungs as a hand pressed against her sternum to keep her down. Minho's eyes were wild above her, other hand hovering over her throat, before his expression cleared. He quickly retracted his hands from her. Sylvia stared at him with widened eyes, heart racing against her ribs.
"Sorry..." He muttered, looking ashamed and apologetic. He explained lamely, "Nightmare."
Sylvia didn't know what to say. She sat up slowly, fingers brushing over her sternum. She glanced at him. Minho looked so...distraught. It was like electric shock seeing him that way. She understood the nightmares. "Try not to strangle me next time."
"Next time?" He smirked almost sheepishly. She punched his arm. Hard.
The both of them headed to the kitchen to see what Frypan had cooked up for the evening. They were greeted with tomato soup, biscuits, and a raise of the eyebrows from Frypan, considering they were eating together.
